But by the time we signed the lease (1 week later ) he had 7 people lined up offering $800/mo more than we are paying all hoping we would fail to sign the lease or fail the credit check. We are paying $300 LESS per month than we paid in 1994 (the last time we lived downtown), albeit in a much smaller place (that was 1700 sq ft). Also by selling our place and renting for the 24 mos. we save $8000 in property taxes on a condo, and $850/mo on what our mortgage and assessments were.
Still high to us, but this is a limited time deal and then WE ARE OUT OF HERE!
Yes it is way over a car payment but we drive a paid off 2003 Explorer with 180,000 miles on it:)
Noise still here but earplugs for DH and pillow over my head made it a little better. And we leave tonight for 5 days to BOL. (Happy dance here!)
Today, I will be happier than a bird with a french fry!
Just a little something to start your day off right!

Sunny, snowy and beautiful today. Got all my wash done, trying to ""clean a tenderloin" (butcher help needed here!), vacuumed, cooked - all in all a great day!
Must be nice! I have to go to work and attend many meetings today! Do you have the day off?Quote:

Naw, even though I pulled an all nighter. But today should be easier. Have a giant Starbucks, and wait for client feedback.Quote:

Coffee by a fire, waiting to see dear daughter and spend day having FUN! Almost makes that 4:30 get up time good;)
Okay, I had the wrong thoughts going on this one! I hate it when I have to make my own dinner because I am just not a cook except for outside cooking!Quote:

What does everybody have planned for this weekend? I think Nessie is going to get some serious snow from what I'm hearing....................yipeeeee, get that shovel out Nessie:smartass:
Yeah, we're getting snow as well as out of town guests arriving tomorrow morning. Hopefully their flight won't be affected or their stay with us...too much running around to do. You don't come to NYC just to cool your heels at home. These are hard partying people so we'll be staying up past our bedtime, all for the sake of old times spent together down south.
Next time you hear from me, beware, I'll be typing tipsy.
So if those people are from the south, you can have a snowman party. After everybody gets tipsy, get them outside and build a snowman:smartass:Quote:

Better than 2D2K typing naked in the middle of the night.Quote:
